Ayat 71. There is not one of you but will pass over it (Hell); this is
with your Lord; a Decree which must be accomplished.
Ayat 72. Then We shall save those who use to fear Allah and
were dutiful to Him. And We shall leave the Zalimun (polytheists and
wrongdoers, etc.) therein (humbled) to their knees (in Hell).
[Tafseer]
Three interpretations are
possible: (1) The general interpretation is that every soul must pass through or
by or over the Fire. Those who have had Taqwa (see n. 26 to 2:2) will be saved by
Allah's Mercy, while unrepentant sinners will suffer the torments in ignominy.
(2) If we refer (he pronoun "you" to those "in obstinate rebellion" in verse 69
above, both leaders and followers in sin, this verse only applies to the wicked.
(3) Some refer this verse to the Bridge over Hell, the Bridge
Sirat,
over which all
must pass to their final Destiny. This Bridge is not mentioned in the
Qur'an.
Hazrat Hudhaifah Abu
Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: that they heard The Messenger
of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) saying, "Allah will assemble mankind, and the believers will stand till
Jannah will be brought near them. They will then go to Adam (PBUH) and say, `O
our father, ask (Allah (SWT), that Jannah may be opened for us, but he will
reply: `There was nothing that put you out of Jannah except your father's sin. I
am not the one to do that, go to my son Ibrahim (Abraham), the beloved man of
Allah.' Then Ibrahim (PBUH) when approached, will say: `I am not the one to do
that, for I was only a friend; and that is not a lofty status but ask Musa
(Moses) to whom Allah spoke.' They will then go to Musa (PBUH) but he will say:
`I am not the one to do that; go to `Isa (Jesus), Allah's Word and spirit.' `Isa
(PBUH) will say: `I am not the one to do that.' So they will come to me; and I
will stand and be given permission. Amanah and ties of relationship will be sent
forth and will stand on the sides of the Sirat (that is, the Bridge set over
Hell-fire) right and left, and the first of you will pass like lightning.'' I
said (that is Abu Hurairah (May Allah bepleased with him)" :I ransom you with my
father and mother, what is like the movement of lightning?'' The Messenger of
Allah replied, "Have you not seen how the lightning goes and returns in the
twinkling of an eye? Next (group will pass) like the passing of the breeze, next
like the passing of a bird, and the next with the speed of a running man,
according to the quality of their deeds. (During all this time) your Prophet
(PBUH) will remain standing on the Bridge saying: `O my Rubb, keep (them) safe,
keep (them) safe,' till men's deeds are so weak that a man comes who will be
able only to crawl. On both sides of the Bridge pronged flesh hooks, placed
under command will be hung and will seize those about whom they receive command,
some people being lacerated and escaping and others being thrown violently into
Hell.'' Abu Hurairah added: By Him in Whose Hand Abu Hurairah's soul is, the pit
of Jahannam (Hell) is seventy years in depth.
[Muslim
Book 01,Chapter 83, Hadith #
380]
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Maryam Ayat 71."There is not one of
you but will pass over it (Hell); this is with your Lord; a Decree which must be
accomplished" This Hadith mentions the
horrors of the Day of Resurrection which are evident from the fact that even
Prophets will be fearful of Allah and making supplication to Him. Prophet
Muhammad (PBUH) alone will be requesting Allah for bestowing His Mercy on
humans. This Hadith also describes the grace of the Prophet (PBUH) who will then
intercede for all.
